geography

View of Proveis

The municipality of Proveis is located in the Non Valley , more precisely on the Deutschnonsberg , as the German-speaking area of ​​the valley is called. Together with the neighboring municipality of Laurein , Proveis protrudes as the South Tyrolean spur into the otherwise Italian- speaking Val di Non, which largely belongs to the Trentino . The municipality is located in the uppermost section of the valley, where the Hofmahdjoch ( 1781  m ) provides a transition into the Ultental . The small village center is located at an altitude of 1420  m on the southern slope of the Ilmenkamm of the Ortler Alps . There the community area at the Hochwart ( 2627  m ) reaches its highest point.

history

Proveis is mentioned in 1274 as in Provesso , 1328 as in montanea Provesi , 1332 as de Provexio and 1524 as Proveis .

From 1850 , Franz Xaver Mitterer, who was born in the neighboring village of Laurein and an exponent of the " German Protection Association ", worked in Proveis as a church cooperator .

Until the end of the First World War, Proveis belonged to the County of Tyrol and thus to Austria-Hungary . With the Treaty of Saint-Germain in 1920, the village came to Italy together with most of Tyrol south of the main Alpine ridge . When the two provinces of Bolzano and Trento were established in these formerly Austrian territories in 1927, Proveis, like the other municipalities of the Deutschnonsberg, was added to the predominantly Italian-speaking province of Trento. It was not until 1948 that Proveis was incorporated into the province of Bozen or South Tyrol.

Until 1998, when a tunnel under the Hofmahdjoch in the Val d'Ultimo was opened, and Proveis Laurein were for the rest of South Tyrol from road transport only Trentino accessible territory.

Lace school

In the second half of the 19th century, Franz Mitterer took measures against the meager living conditions and founded a lace school for girls and a basket weaving school for boys as new sources of income and additional income for the local population. The lace school established by Mitterer in 1873 was closed in 1875 and reopened in 1876 as the "Imperial and Royal Lace Working School" and developed into an influential Imperial and Royal technical school, which was well known at the time and recommended in travel guides. Proveis was exemplary for other branches set up by the Ministry of Education, partly directly and partly subsidized by the Ministry of Education in the following years: in Malè (1879), Lusern (1882/1883), Dol-Otlica (1885), Predazzo (1885), Flitsch (1887) ), Calavino (1890, moved to Tione in 1895 ), Cles (1891), Čepovan (1891) and Prettau (initiated privately, subsidized by the state from 1894). The most heavily attended school was in Proveis (51 students). After the last lace teacher got married in the 1960s, the gates of the lace school closed. Since 1996 the handicraft has been practiced again by a relative of the last teacher and also taught again in a publicly funded school in the neighboring municipality of Ulten.
